05-13-2022, 04:14 AMI think I can feel the bucking in 1st, and maybe even on very light throttle in some scenarios in 3rd. Was going to check the spark plug wire...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-13-2022, 02:27 AMIf 3rd and OD are locked, direct drive gears, the trans shouldn't be trying to do anything else while in gear? Right? Since there's no converter...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-12-2022, 01:19 PMDoes the AOD have such one way clutches for 3rd and OD? From my learning of the AOD, those gears are direct drive. Would direct drive gears still...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-12-2022, 11:26 AMI have to admit that this carb swap has not meaningfully affected the jerky / bucking decel. What in the fuck could it be... The bucking can still...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-11-2022, 10:44 AMThanks, those don't show up for '85 it seems. Found the Hayden and a Four Seasons equivalent on RA for '88 MGM. I guess I'll order either one, those...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-11-2022, 02:13 AMThanks! I think the gold turned out great aswell. I bought the wideband without much hesitation since most (reputable) carb tuners around here are...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-10-2022, 01:40 PMI was going to loosen up the TV pressure a bit and instead of using the threaded fine adjustment, I loosened the cable stop like an idiot. And I got...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-10-2022, 07:38 AMI did 0-60 a couple times last year and it was around 18-19 seconds. Not really brake boosting. Obviously those numbers are pretty far from what they...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-10-2022, 07:10 AMTest drive #2: Yesterday the trans was too mushy, today I cranked the TV pressure up a bit too much, and then down a bit. As it is now, WOT...720 replies | 80980 view(s)

05-06-2022, 06:11 AMThe rod is long enough to bottom out the trans at WOT, but it doesn't pull back enough at closed throttle. The travel / geometry is skewed and I know...720 replies | 80980 view(s)
